If you’ve ever felt like your energy just isn’t what it used to be — that slow, dragging fatigue that coffee doesn’t quite fix — you’re not imagining it. Much of our vitality depends on something microscopic yet mighty: the mitochondria.

Muscle is more than just tissue that moves our bodies—it is a critical organ of longevity. Yet beginning as early as our 30s, most adults start to lose muscle mass and strength in a process called age-related sarcopenia. Without intervention, this gradual decline accelerates with each passing decade, quietly eroding independence and health.

One of the biggest fears for older adults—and their families—is the risk of falling. In fact, falls are the leading cause of injury among seniors. The good news? Many falls can be prevented with a few minutes of gentle, consistent exercise each day. By improving balance, strength, and mobility, seniors can feel more confident moving around their homes and enjoy greater independence.
